Best class of my semester. Only was once a week but mid way through the semester I wish it was more. Teacher is always motivating and actually cares if we are learning the material.
Best professor I have had and an awesome person. Actually cares about us learning and will explain material more if we have questions. Always willing to help and he is funny.
Best teacher! Makes sure you learn, and quizzes are exactly what he teaches you. He understands a students life, and will helpmeet with anyone who needs help. I could tell he looked at us more than just students, but as real people. Very easy class if you pay attention and attend class. Only got a B in the class because of my laziness
This class was a breath of fresh air. Mr. B. was always enthusiastic and ready to teach when he stepped foot into the classroom. Whether I was in a good or bad mood, I always left class feeling better. Class was once a week but honestly I wish it was more. Great teacher and very motivational. Take notes, pay attention and you will do great.
Great class. Very informative and actually cares about his students and what they think and say. Learned a lot with his teaching style. Very enthusiastic and always there to help if needed.
Best teacher ever. Was such a fun great class. Study the material that is gone over in class and do the homework and participate in class and you will do great. Wish Mr. B taught more classes
Awesome instructor. Very informative and even helps his students get internships outside of school. He actually really cares about us as a student. Very knowledgeable as well which is really nice.
Lectures are very informative and fun. Makes entire class participate so do not take if you are not prepared for that. But even I was nervous at first but only class I actually wanted to speak and felt comfortable doing so. Mr. B is the best.
Mr B genuinely cares about you as a student and seriously is the most passionate teacher I have ever met. Class is always flying by with discussions on life, health and improvements in our daily lifes. Great class, learn alot, study materials and communicate with him if you ever miss a class. Best class I have taken and best teacher.
Matthew Barbier is someone you will never, E-V-E-R regret having as a teacher. He is not only there for you on the clock, but he will be there for you off the clock. His spirit will drive you to do well in his classes. He doesn't have a negative bone in his body. You will learn a great deal from him, and beyond. An excellent, inspirational teacher.
I HIGHLY recommend you take him if you need a health class. I took his 3 hour lecture, but time always went by quick. He makes the discussions fun and very open. Don't eat junk food in his class or litter cause he will call you out on it lol. Didn't really need the textbook. Study your notes and always attend class, and you will pass. Easy A.
Mr. B is hand's down the best teacher so far, for someone who's been here for two semesters he truly does care about his students. I took this class just for credit and ended up learning a lot about nutrition and how to live a better lifestyle. His homework assignments are fun & easy, and the quizzes are based on his lecture's and power points.
Absolutely loved this professor and the class. We had discussions and homework that was relevant to our health. Prof B made it so much easier to learn with his interaction and teaching style. Made me and I know my classmates comfortable speaking in class. Best professor I have had
Matthew, as he likes to be called, is a great professor! His work isn't hard, but he's a great and passionate instructor. He loves what he does and wants his students to love health too! Do not take anybody else for HLED3 but him! Trust me... You will regret it if you do!
Professor B is one of the best most inspirational teachers I have ever had. He is always there to help and keeps classes engaging and fun to the point where you are actually learning without knowing it. Don't miss class and don't be late! Took for general req but was so glad I had to and learned so much.
Matthew kept class very interesting, although it was 3 hours long. He knows what he's talking about in his lectures and isn't just rambling. Take good notes everything he says is exactly on the test. The exams have two or three of the chapter tests in them. Email him 24hrs before an exam or quiz and he'll let you take it the next class.
I loved this class and would take it again if I could! Very positive, encouraging professor who actually made me want to come to class. Professor B was really helpful and had a lot of knowledge about the course. Take this class and you will love what you learn and prof B.
A DREAM COME TRUE!!! Matt is very helpful, friendly, and an advocate for his students. Great lectures and welcomes student feedback. Uses real life application scenarios as they relate to the course. Very inspiring. Handsome!
This guy is awesome!!! He truly is one of the best professors I've had at LBCC, he knows what he's talking about and makes it clear for all to understand the concepts of health. He's there for you anytime you need help or just don't know what to do with your life. Just take the class, I promise you will not regret it!
He is the literal manifestation of a bro. Mr. B is that kind of guy you can rely on with academic problems or personal problems. You can see his goal is for you to take care of your health and those around you. Attend class, put in your two cents in discussions, and that's all you need. A man of passion for his work and students health.
Mr Barbier was a great instructor. Always made himself available whether through email or during his office hours. Learned a lot through an online course. He showed great patience with me and really enjoyed the videos and quotes he posted on moodle. Excellent instructor!
Great Professor! Very encouraging and motivational. Loved the class and has helped change my eating habits for the better. Very engaging and incredibly relatable and not on an unreachable level as other instructors are. He's just the best.
Mr B was awesome! Was always fun to be in his class and he always would check to make sure we knew what he was explaining. Not sure what the last person was saying but he is the best teacher I have had by far at this school in two semesters. Would recommend to everyone.
Loved everything about this course. Barbier is awesome and a very good teacher. He gets along well with all his students and gets everyone participating in their learning. He motivates you to become healthy and active. Learned a lot about my health.
Show up, take the exams/quizzes, turn in the homework easy A. You don't even need to buy the book. Oh, and he constantly asks the class if they've worked out, so get ready for that.
Really fun learning environment. Mr B is really passionate about the topic and you can tell he wants the best for us and our health. Everything we did had to do with us and what is going on in our lives. Very encouraging and motivating to make health changes. Great class!
Professor Barbier is the most accommodating and caring professor you can ever find. He cares about his students' success and will do whatever it takes to assist them reach their goals. His lectures are very clear and his tests and assignments match the reading assignments and the lectures. Everything is straightforward. He makes the complex very ea
Lil Matt is the best! He is very passionate about the subject and cares about the health of everyone. He was extremely motivating. he made me look at things in life a different way. Now i always carry a positive mindset. he also motivated to change my lifestyle and he made it easy for me to do that. I went from 320lbs to 254lbs during the semester.
Best teacher ever!
He was so informative! Never made class boring, plus he was nice to look at!
Bro. This guy. Legendary.
I enjoyed everything about this class!! I learned a lot about health and nutrition. Things I never knew about before. Mr Barbier was very understanding and thorough. Class was always interesting and fun covering new material in a great environment.
He is really easy and wants to make student life easier so there is not that much homework. He's super nice and laid back. He's young also. All he does is lecture and we take notes. A lot of the time you get out early just cuz the lecture goes by fast. So if you want a chill class take him! Oh and he knows a lot about health of course and life.
Really chill teacher. Cares a lot about health and tries to apply everything he teaches to his students lives. Really easy class. Majority of the semester we ended class early. Not a lot of homework.
Mr B is fantastic and an excellent prof. The class has been so much life improving and knowledgeable classes I ever taken. Great energy and positive attitude.
Very inspirational in lectures. I always seem to resonate deeply with his level of spirituality. Being only one of three girls to take the course, I wasn't really sure what to expect, but a few weeks in and I am already very impressed & so happy to be taught by a such handsome, witty man :)
This professor is great! You have any issues, he responds and makes sure you understand, and your questions or concerns addressed.
Best professor I've ever had. He really cares for his students. Class is very easy and inspirational. You do not need to buy the book, he has everything that you need online. LOVE ALL HIS MOTIVATIONAL VIDEOS!! Also, all assignments are online.
Woke up every Tuesdays and Thursdays with joy because Inhad his classes on those days. Loved his class. Easy pass just show up and pay attention its impossible not to love him as your teacher. Easy quizzes. Never use the book. Changes your view on life and inspires you to be a better and healthier person ����
Matt Barbier couldnt have been a better choice for me!! His passion for the class and all the students is through the roof and he kills all his presentations. You will never feel like you need to catch up and everything he lectures IS ON THE QUIZES. OH YEAH NO TESTS... LIKE NOT EVEN ONE. Attendance isn's mandatory and all the material is online.
Best professor and class I have ever taken in community college or university level. Relates to all students and inspires you to be better in every way of your life especially health. I felt connected to every class, it was awesome.
Great instructor
Professor Barbier is AWESOME! He is not a difficult grader. Reading is a must, lectures are helpful. Attending class shouldn't be a problem for students, there are only two meeting per month. And the testing are all done online. Very understanding. And his vibes makes class a looking forward to attend.
great professor.
awesome, understandable, and caring. Easy class if you show up everyday and do all the work. I would take his class again.
he's alright, i guess. easy class.
From the beginning he tells you how he is. He is big on respect and participation. He is super caring and actually will talk and give advice when needed. His quizzes are easy straight from the power points and has amazing speakers to come into class! always hyped and as long as you do the assignments you will pass! 1 of my favorite teachers at LBCC
In just a short time Professor B opened up my mind with all his interaction and how involved he is to get his students to get involved and see things differently. I set goals for myself during his class which I never really thought possible but I actually achieved most of them! He is very open in every lecture and always is encouraging each class.
Super super sweet guy, actually cares about you passing, very happy and energetic, loves his job, loves his students. Very very inspiring. Highly recommended
I've never had a professor who cared so much about the content of this class. He genuinely cares for his students and it was a great class! Definitely recommend!
Professor Barbier is hands down the best professor at LBCC! He genuinely cares about his students success in life as well as their health. He encouraged me to make some changes in life in order to be successful and happy. He offers extra credit, but the class is an easy A. You won't regret taking him! Trust me!!!
Mr B is an amazing teacher. I always looked forward to this class. Fun environment, great discussions and Mr B's passion for health of his students is amazing. Great energy and great teacher. Its an eye opener course.
Professor Barbier is awesome who inspires his students to enhance a healthy lifestyle. Goes beyond the material to help you understand. Very pro student who understands the essentials for better teaching. Easy A!
Take him!! It may be the easiest class ever but it has had the most impact on my life. Ive developed healthier habits and now Im down 30 pounds. I am so happy I took this class. He really cares about his students as well!! Easy A.
He genuinely cares about his students. This is an easy A class. I'm glad I took this course because it impacts our daily lives. Quizzes are based off the lectures. Instead of hw, he likes to give out challenges and they are very interesting.
He genuinely cares about his students. Although I never had an issue I knew I was able to email him at any time and he'll get back to me as soon as possible. Take him. Just a quiz and discussion due every week and a few of easy short essays (gives you plenty of time).
You honestly cant fail this class. Super easy, cares for his students.
The best !
I took this class because I wanted to get more into mens health than general health itself, but great teacher and I would take this class again.
This professor will do two things thatll make you upset beyond reason. Firstly, he will mess up on one or two of the test answers and will not correct it (Hell even admit to being wrong too). Also, he will give you half credit on an assignment for something that he did not list in the rubric. Plus side is his exams and discussions are fairly easy
I am taking Prof Barbier right now for this online KIN class and I must say, it has been excellent so far. I have emailed him multiple times and his communication is fast and motivating. His grading is very clear on his syllabus and lets you know whats expected in the class. Oh, and he has replied to every single discussion question I have posted!
Best online class I have taken at LBCC. Class is informative and easy to navigate. Professor Barbier responds to all the topics we write about and is always sending reminders each week to turn in our stuff. Great teacher especially during this all online time.
Prof B was great. Made learning material easy and accessible for us each week. Most organized online course from what Im enrolled in.
Professor Barbier is always interacting with his students and creating a comfortable environment for us to interact back with him and to other students. That is key in an online course. Professor Barbier does a fantastic job staying connected each week and in keeping this consistent. Most organized online course I have taken.
HLED 5 online was the easiest course I've ever taken, a 10 question quiz & short discussion post every week, shoutout professor Barbier pretty useful info too
This has to be the most chill professor ever at LBCC. He feels like more a good mentor and friend rather than a professor while giving you lots of good tips and ideas on general health that I think we forget about sometimes. Highly recommend especially if you need this class.
Fantastic professor, very straight forward and easy class. There should not be any reason why you can't finish any of his courses with an A.
Weekly PowerPoints and we had to do a discussion (very short and easy), a quiz (10 multiple choice questions and very easy) and that's it. We also had a few 2 page writing assignments which were all interesting and again, easy. Nice professor I would recommend his online course everything was clear and concise.
The easiest college course I think ever! You have to absolutely do nothing to NOT receive an A. Straight forward lectures and quizzes(open notes) and very easy. 1 discussion post and you have to respond to 1 person. 3 papers in total but superrrr easy. Great professor. Loved it.
Prof B was awesome. Really helped me change my perspective on health and helped me start eating healthier and living a healthier life style. This class definitely left a mark on my mindset.
Great teacher who inspires lots of people including myself. Ive started to make a change in my attitude and the way I think. I started working out after becoming educated in health. Had lots of fun in class.
Mr B is very inspirational not only to me but all of the classmates I talk too. I like a lot of things about this class. It is fun and we all had a good time while discussing serious topics. I liked the atmosphere and how engaging everyone was in the class. I learned a lot about my mental health and my diet. I changed my diet completely.
Professor Barbier was by far my FAVORITE professor at LBCC. His assignments are straight to the point and are simple. His test are very easy and self explanatory. Definitely recommend!
Prof B was very well informed in what he is teaching. Lectures are a lot of information but easy to remember. It is fun and we all have a good time while discussing topics. I like the atmosphere and how engaging we all were. I changed my diet entirely. I want this class to get awareness.
I took Professor Barbier's class this fall semester since I am also earning a sex and gender certificate and my AA. I enjoyed the class and learned a lot about myself as well. The lectures on alcohol, drugs, and diet made me reconsider my consumption. He has clear expectations of what is expected in class work and grades. I recommend it.
My favorite class and professor throughout community college and university. Wonderful instructor with a real passion for teaching and helping others become better versions of themselves. This course made me want to continue my martial arts career and continue on this path outside of this class.
He is the best professor I have had in the past three years of college, both community college and university. He is the best.
I am happy to say that professor Barbier is one of the best instructors I have had. He is someone everyone can look up to and strive to be. I learn and takeaway more from this class than any other class. I am always excited to come to class and always look forward to the next.
By far the best, funnest, and most meaningful class that I've ever taken. I honestly feel that I gained new brothers for life by the connections that I made in this class. I highly recommend that if you have the opportunity to take this class, do it! You will not regret it. Course is 100% class discussion sprinkled with quizzes here and there.
This is a great class to learn that as a man; you can strive to be the best man you can be even when there are obstacles to endure. Matthew teaches us to be strong, healthy, and that everything that the world throws at us is to make us stronger mentally and physically. Thank you for your motivation and hope to see you again.
By far the best professor I've taken at LBCC thus far. Took him as an 8 week course and the syllabus was clearly lined out with when assignments were due. Easy discussions and quizzes with a couple short paged papers. Lectures were full of useful information and it made me rethink some bad habits of mine. 1000/10, take him!
I took Mr Barbier from August to December of 2024 and the class is so engaging and fun. He truly cares about teaching his students (and is also into real estate). The class quickly progressed to doing jiu jitsu on the mat every class. Your classmates slowly turn into close friends. It's a real brotherhood in there. Thank you Mr Barbier! - Ebube
When I first read all of the ratings,I thought somebody was making bot accounts and leaving good reviews because I have never seen somebody so respected before lol. After taking his class he is all the ratings say and is a great teacher, and person overall. He's extremely engaged with his students and would make me want to run through a wall at 9am
Probably one of the easiest and chillest class I have every taken. Professor Barbier was a great teacher and the workload is so minimal. Very easy to pass and he cares about his students. Would def take again.
